    Is All Is Well good for learning Chinese?

    All Is Well (都挺好) is a 2019 drama of 46 episodes. Words from HSK 1 to 4 are 84% of what its characters say, number 3 of the 17 dramas we counted, easiest first, and its lines run at about 4.6 characters a second. Watch episode 1 above with pinyin, tap any line you missed to hear it again, then watch it once more without looking.

    What HSK level do I need to watch All Is Well?

    At HSK 3 you’d know 79% of the words it says, at HSK 4 84%, at HSK 5 88% and at HSK 6 90%. Following a story with ease takes knowing about 95 to 98% of its words (Nation 2006), so below that, watch with the Chinese lines, their pinyin and a meaning for any word you don’t know, as this page gives you.

    Where can I watch All Is Well free?

    Episode 1 plays above, free, from 正午阳光官方频道, the official channel that put the show on YouTube. On YouTube itself, turn its Chinese subtitles on with CC, then Chinese.

    How do I get pinyin on the other episodes?

    Add the Mandarin The Wild extension to Chrome: every Chinese video on YouTube gets its line under the player with pinyin over each word, and a card with the meaning of any word you point at.

    Where do the lines and the pinyin come from?

    The lines are the show’s own Chinese subtitles, uploaded by 正午阳光官方频道 with the episode. Our reader splits each line into words and gives each word the reading it has in that sentence; a word whose reading isn’t settled stays in characters rather than guess. The level counts are from its first episode, names left out.

    Is it free?

    Yes, with no account.
